Do I continue to pay the mortgage when my partner has left?

Recently my husband left me taking our son.Currently both the house and mortgage are in joint names.We are both unemployed.The mortgage is currently paid from my husbands account by direct debit.Last month he did not have the funds to make payment so I transferred the money which I borrowed from my account to his.What should I do going forward? Should I change the direct debit to be from my account?

LIZS we have no funds because no money went into the business account for 6 months. He has just signed on for Jobseekers allowance now he has left. I'm just living a nightmare and going to sign up for jobseekers allowance next week. For 6 months we have been living off borrowed money hence the strain on our relationship.

so how are you paying this month ? I doubt you'll qualify for any assistance with payments especially if you have no dependent children living there and if you are deemed to have made yourself unemployed or not paid NI you may not even get JSA for the time being.
